    How should I feed it? They're so small.

    Periodic feedings with fine, meaty marine-based foods. I use a syringe without needle when night light come on. Usually give them a little blast so tenticles come out then feed them.

    Yeah, that's not doing so well. Very low light coral. If it puts out tentacles at night it should eat. If you need more help, lmk.
